At first glance I was also thinking it looks better - then I took a closer look and saw all of the creasing.

I now agree that it's no better than a 3, and probably not worth the grading fees.

There's no creasing. I'll scan again.

Default 5.5 if no wrinkles
Saw no paper loss. Only issue in scans is the "line" across the lower left corner.

Nice but not necessarily a card I would grade xcept as a set collector. JMO

Under magnification the areas that are circled are not creases. Surface or spider wrinkle.

I see it grading a '2'. That's a spider wrinkle. I'm sorry, but save your $6 grading fee. It would probably bring $3 at auction.

As an example, the "u" in league is a solid black letter. If there was a crease, there would be a crease going through the "u' also. No creases.

Always good to have another set of eyeballs take a closer look. Especially eyes that work

You can see the "wrinkle on bit sides of the card " . I wouldn't even know what to call it if that's not a crease or a wrinkle .

Is the first scan you posted a full card scan? If so I am almost certain it has been trimmed top and bottom.

For what it's worth, this Kuzava is only graded a 3, and I assume that is due to the slight spider or surface wrinkle that can be seen on the back.

I have seen a lot worse cards graded higher so I think they were super tough with this card for some reason?
